4 MEMORABLE

The smoke of the most memorable con
test ever witnessed in any party in our
little mountain State is not yet lifted.
But let us stop and look over the field and
catch, through the hattie smoke, 4 glimpse
of the future.
The REGISTER, having the good Of the
party in view, has made it its meat and
drink to urge and insist upon
the peoples Democratic representatives
to show their Democracy by
shaping their course in accordance with
cherished uSages and traditions. The
REGISTER has urged them to remain stead
fast in purpose, looking neither to the
right nor to the left toward anything that
would do violence to party customs. The
REGISTER has favored the election of Mr..
CAMDEN; at first, because 1t regarded him
as the strongest and most deserving man,
and later, because he was the choice OF the
majority.
Though the result has been that the
majority has not ruled we are proud ofthe
course We have taken. Though the fight
against Mr.. CAMDEN has been most acri-
mOnious and bitter, he has on all Occa-
siOnS shown himself a man and a Demo-
erat worthy OF the high position to which
a majority of the Democrats wished to
elect him. Notwithstanding the attacks
of selfseekerS and disappointed politicians
were formulated with the most ingenuity
that bitterness and gall could summon,
not a single act could be laid at Mr.. CAM
DEN's door that was corrupt or dishonest.
Even his political enemies have been
forced to admit this. Mr.. CAMDEN,
though defeated, can have the satisfaction
of knowing that he has borne himself molly
and is greater even in defeat than many
are in victory.
The thirty-eight caucus Democrats have
borne themselves bravely, and deserve only
words of commentator for the fearless,
straightforward course they have taken.
AuOuSu tACg h1HS SouS ooNu, IuCl uaNt
gone down Democrats as true as steel, with
the Democratic eolors floating proudly
from the masthead.
Unless the session is extended, which
seems improbable at the present writing,
the battle is over. If so, let Dem
Ocrats forget the past and look for
ward to the future. Let the Dem
Ocrats of the State regardless of factions
and animosities rally their forces for the
contest of 1SSS, which will soon be upon
US. The REGISTER, for one, believes
that while the diSsensiOns and quar-
rels in our ranks have been
fraught with i'll, the party is strong never
theleSs, and will in due time rise proudly
above them. The principles of Democracy
are as true to-day as when proclaimed by
the Sage of Monticello, and among the
hills and mountains and valleys of West
Virginia still touch responsive chords in
as true Democratic hearts as ever beat
These keep the party strong and will, in
spite of the late faetional strife, lead to
many a glorious conquest in the future.

DELEGATES GLEASON and GARDEN are
spoken of as being two of the best repre-
sentatives in the House. Always at their
posts, except when on committees; never
occupying the time of the body by any
nonsense, but always putting their bills
or motions before the House in 4 clear,
concise way. \ gentleman just from the
capital says: They are respected and pop
ular, and command Is much influence as
any members of the Honse.
House BILL 100, in regard to the taxing
OF corporations, passed the Senate after
being amended in the House, making an
important part of the section read;
The value of the capital shall be esti,
mated by taking the aggregate value Of
all the personal property OF the company,
nOt exempt from taxation, wherever stu
ated, including their money, credits and
investments, whether in or out of the
State, and deducting from the said money,
credits and investments, and not from said
aggregate, what they " 10 Others Is
